There is no current comparator to LifeVest. In France, patients at high risk for sudden cardiac arrest (SCD) and waiting for heart transplant or ICD are hospitalized or discharged home without any particular ECG monitoring. LifeVest has been demonstrated to automatically detect and terminate rapid ventricular arrhythmias. Introduction of LifeVest into the current patient management would definitely improve the clinical outcomes and benefit the patients with temporary risk of SCD. The use of LifeVest was shown to be effective in protecting patients against SCD in the United States. However, the clinical impact of using LifeVest in France remains unassessed. Therefore we are planning to conduct a post-market study in France to provide efficacy and safety data for the reimbursement dossier renewal before April 2017.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['CHILD', 'ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'samplingMethod': 'PROBABILITY_SAMPLE', 'studyPopulation': 'Residents of France All patient who were prescribed a LifeVest were approached for consent.
